G. 1312 In the above formula (I), a C1-4 alkyl group includes methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl and tert. butyl, and is preferably methyl or ethyl. A C1-4 alkoxy group is one such alkyl group linked to a ring via an oxygen atom, and a halo atom is preferably chlorine, bromine or fluorine, and especially chlorine or fluorine. A substituted phenyl group is phenyl substituted with one or more, for example one to three, substituents selected from, for example C1-4 alkyl, especially methyl, C1-4 alkoxy, especially methoxy and ethoxy, hydroxy, nitro, cyano, halo, especially chloro or fluoro, trihalomethyl, especially trifluoromethyl, carboxy and C1-4 alkoxy- carbonyl.
A heteroaryl group can have one or more hetero atoms selected from, for example, oxygen, nitrogen and sulphur and preferably contains from 5 to 10 carbon atoms. Preferably a heteroaryl group is of the formula:

G. 1312 It will be appreciated that the compounds of the invention can contain one or more asymmetric carbon atoms which gives rise to isomers. The compounds are normally prepared as racemic mixtures and can conveniently be used as such, but individual isomers can be isolated by conventional techniques if so desired. Such racemic mixtures and individual optical isomers form part of the present invention. It is preferred to use an enantiomerically pure form.
it is, of course, possible to prepare salts of the compounds of the invention and such salts are included in the invention. Acid addition salts are preferably the pharmaceutically acceptable, nontoxic addition salts with suitable acids, such as those with inorganic acids, for example hydrochloric, hydrobromic, nitric, sulphuric or phosphoric acids, or with organic acids, such as organic carboxylic acids, for example, glycollic, maleic, hydroxymaleic, fumaric, malic, tartaric, citric, salicyclic, _Q-acetoxybenzoic, or organic sulphonic, 2-hydroxyethane sulphonic, toluene-p-sulphonic, or naphthalene-2-sulphonic acid.
In addition to pharmaceutically-acceptable salts, other salts are included in the invention. They may serve as intermediates in the purification of compounds or in the preparation of other, for example pharmaceutically- G. 1312 7 - acceptable, acid addition salts, or are useful for identification, characterisation or purification.
The invention also includes a process for producing a compound of formula (1) above, which comprises reacting a compound of the formula H-W-Y-Z (III) with a compound of formula:
R1 X 2 AN- (CR 6 R7),,0 R 3 R RS R 4 OV) where the substituents have the values given above, and Q is a leaving group, for example, halo or a mesylate or tosylate.
The reaction is preferably carried out in an inert organic solvent such as, for example, methyl isobutyl ketone or acetonitrile, and at a temperature of from 800 C. to 1100 The reaction takes place in alkaline conditions by the use of, for example, sodium carbonate or potassium carbonate.
Compounds of formula (III) are either known or can be prepared by methods well known in the art.
In the case of compounds in which W is G. 1312 C.
(CH2)q N (CH2)r compounds can be prepared reacting the partially protected nitrogen containing cyclic amine with a phenyl or heteroaryl carbonyl halide, followed by deprotection, to give compounds of the formula:
(CH2)q 0 11 N-C-Z HN (CH2)r optionally followed by reduction to give the compound of formula (III) in which Y is -CH(OH)-.
Compounds of formula (IV) are either known or can be prepared by methods well known in the art as, for example, by reacting a compound of the formula:
G.1312 X R1 AN 1H 2 RW 3 J R5 W (V) with a compound of the formula Q'(CR6R7)nQ, where Q' is also a leaving group.
An alternative route to the compounds of the invention consists of an analogous, reverse, condensation of the principal components of the molecule as, for example, by reacting a compound of the formula (V) above, with a 10 compound of the formula Q (CR6R7) n-W-Y-Z Such reagents can be made as described above or by analogous 15 methods.
As mentioned above, the compounds of the invention have useful central nervous system activity. The compounds are active at the serotonin, 5HT1Da, receptor. Their binding activity has been demonstrated in a test described by Zgombick, J. M. et al., molecular Pharmacology Vol. 40 1992, pages 1036-1042, and compounds of the invention as described in the following Examples have a Ki of from 2 r1M to 5,000 r1M. Some of the compounds, for example those of G.1312 i - 10 formula III, also possess binding activity at the 5-HTII)p receptor. Furthermore, compounds have activity at the 5-HT2A receptors as shown in the test described by Leysen, J. E. et al., Molecular Pharmacology Vol. 21 1981, pages 301-314.
Because of their selective affinity for the 5HT receptors, the compounds of the present invention are indicated for use in treating a variety of conditions such as obesity, bulimia, alcoholism, pain, depression, hypertension, ageing, memory loss, sexual dysfunction, anxiety, schizophrenia, gastrointestinal disorders, headache, cardiovascular disorders, smoking cessation, drug addiction, emesis, Alzheimer's and sleep disorders.
is The compounds of the invention are effective over a wide dosage range, the actual dose administered being dependent on such factors as the particular compound being used, the condition being treated and the type and size of mammal being treated. However, the dosage required will normally fall within the range of 0.01 to 20 mg/kg per day, for example in the treatment of adult humans, dosages of from 0.5 to 100 mg per day may be used.
The compounds of the invention will normally be administered orally or by injection and, for this purpose, the compounds will usually be utilised in the form of a pharmaceutical composition. Such compositions are prepared in a manner G.1312 well known in the pharmaceutical art and comprise at least one active compound.
Accordingly the invention includes a pharmaceutical composition comprising as active ingredient a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, associated with a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient. In making the compositions of the invention, the active ingredient will usually be mixed with a carrier, or diluted by a carrier, or enclosed within a carrier which may be in the form of a capsule, sachet, paper or other container. The excipient may be a solid, semi-solid or liquid material which acts as a vehicle, excipient or medium for the active ingredient. Some examples of suitable excipients are lactose, dextrose, sucrose, sorbitol, mannitol, starches, gum acacia, calcium phosphate, alginates, tragacanth, gelatin, syrup, methyl cellulose, methyl- and propyl-hydroxybenzoate, talc, magnesium stearate or oil. The compositions of the invention may, if desired, be formulated so as to provide quick, sustained or delayed release of the active ingredient after administration to the patient.
Depending on the route of administration, the foregoing compositions may be formulated as tablets, capsules or suspensions for oral use and injection solutions or suspensions for parenteral use or as suppositories. Preferably the compositions are formulated in a dosage unit form, each dosage G. 1312 containing from 0.5 to 100 mg, more usually 1 to 100 mg, of the active ingredient.
The following Examples illustrate the invention:

2(3.3-Dimethvlo2gindolvl)ethano: 3,3-Dimethyloxindole (prepared by the method of Endler and Becker; Organic Syntheses Coll. vol. 4 page 657) was dissolved in dry dimethylformamide under nitrogen at room temperature. Sodium hydride (60% dispersion in mineral oil) (1.05 equivalents) was added and the mixture was stirred until gas evolution ceased. 2-(2-Chloroethoxy)tetrahydro-2H-pyran (1.05 equivalents) and Sodium iodide (0.1 equivalents) was added and the mixture was warmed to 750 C. for 15 hours. Water was added and the mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was taken up in ethyl acetate, washed (x 3) with water, dried (M9S04), filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting oil was taken up in methanol, paratoluenesulphonic acid (0.1 equivalents) was added and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 12 hours. The mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure, taken up in ethyl acetate, washed (x 3) with aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate solution dried (M9S04), filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting oil was purified by chromatography on silica gel, eluent hexane/ethyl acetate, to give 2(3, 3dimethyloxindolyl)ethanol which was characterised by 1H nmr and MS.
